Electrovoice RE90P-18

A Microphone Designed for Installation and Speech

The Electro-Voice RE90P-18 belongs to the family of gooseneck microphones intended for installed environments: meeting rooms, lecture halls, places of worship, podiums, and lecterns. Its 44 cm length offers great placement flexibility, convenient when alternating multiple speakers or when a stable hands-free capture is desired.

Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?

This microphone is particularly suited for users seeking a discreet, reliable, and voice-oriented solution. The cardioid polar pattern helps focus the pickup on the speaker, facilitating sound reinforcement and improving speech clarity in reverberant rooms. It is suitable for both fixed (installed) use and event configurations, provided phantom power is available.

Clear, Controlled Capture and Easy Integration

Electrostatic Capsule and Frequency Response Optimized for Voice

Thanks to its electrostatic capsule, the RE90P-18 delivers detailed response and clear articulation. Its frequency response from 100 Hz to 15 kHz aligns with speech requirements: enhancing clarity while limiting unnecessary low frequencies that could complicate mixing (handling noise, vibrations, stage rumble).

Cardioid Polar Pattern: More Intelligibility, Less Ambient Noise

The cardioid pattern reduces pickup of side and rear sounds. The result is cleaner sound capture, better feedback margin depending on the setup, and a voice that remains present even in noisy environments.

Performance and Ease of Use

With a sensitivity of 4.5 mV/Pa, a dynamic range of 102 dB SPL, and a self-noise below 28 dB SPL (A-weighted), this microphone meets common speech reinforcement requirements. Its matte black finish enhances visual discretion on stage or on camera, and the included windscreen helps control plosives and air blasts.

Variants and Accessories

If you need a shorter format, this model is also available in 28 cm (reference RE90P-12 ). Optional accessories are available to adapt the microphone to your installation: CPSM Suspension and FMK Mounting Kit.
